I am fitting a logistic regression model using svy in Stata version 9. I am trying to use the subpop option to focus on only those adults 55 and older. However, in my logistic model I specifically want to look at the differences among age categories for participation in adult education (aepart) so I also have age categories (AgeCat7) as an independent variable. I have received messages on my output that indicate putting in age will cause problems. My questions are:

1. Below is my output, note _IAgeCat7_7 dropped due to collinearity. This is the category for anyone under 55 so it shouldn't have been in the model, but does this message indicate another problem?

You aren't showing your exact commands or your error message, so it is hard to fully diagnose the problem (or if there even is one). Just from the output presented, I don't see any obvious problems. But show everything and we can advise you better.
